Careers at Mythos
Help hold AI accountable before it ships.
Mythos builds the proving ground for AI systems — testing agents, copilots, and integrations before they reach production. If that mission resonates, introduce yourself through Open Talent.
Open Talent is always open
Why Mythos
Work that holds the line on AI.
Mythos is a small, deliberate team doing serious work at the edge of how AI gets deployed. Here is what that means for you.
A mission with weight
AI is being deployed into work that matters before anyone has proven it safe. Mythos exists to hold those systems accountable before they reach production.
Work at the frontier
The standards for evaluating AI systems are being written right now. The work you do here helps define how deployment risk is measured across the industry.
Depth over theater
Mythos runs rigorous, evidence-driven assessments — not security theater. Findings are real, reproducible, and tied to a deployment decision.
Build the proving ground
Athena and Achilles are a dual-engine platform for testing AI before release. You will help build, sharpen, and scale the system that does the work.

The traits that thrive here.
Titles and pedigree matter less than how you think and what you ship. These are the qualities that do well at Mythos.
Rigor
You reason from evidence, not vibes, and you can defend how you reached a conclusion.
Adversarial curiosity
You think like an attacker and a defender, and you enjoy probing how systems break.
Clear communication
You turn complex technical findings into decisions that non-experts can act on.
Ownership
You carry problems end to end and follow through without being asked twice.
Integrity
You handle sensitive systems and information with discretion and good judgment.
Builder's bias
You ship, measure, and improve — and you would rather prove something than argue about it.
